Publisher's Synopsis
How can America recover from economic stagnation, moral exhaustion, and looming bankruptcy? American Conservative Union vice chairman Donald J. Devine shows the way.
Progressivism has so corrupted the modern political mindset—in both parties—that it has obscured the secret of the Constitution's success: the way it harmonised freedom and tradition. Devine points to the essential paradox that Nobel laureate F. A. Hayek highlighted: “A successful free society will always in large measure be a tradition-bound society.”
America's Way Back makes a powerful case for a new “fusion” of libertarianism and traditionalism. Just as the fusionism of William F. Buckley Jr. and Frank Meyer led to a conservative revival in the 1960s, a new harmony between freedom and tradition will revive America today.
